Still light as day
this late
the urge to linger
is compelling
a cesura
and June gives way
like a sandbank
I should pack
it’s not even that hot
but these days
there is a muggy weight
to motivation
why change
these hours
are made to sit
and make plans
to pin the days
in place
tomorrow
is a new day
but it isn’t here yet
